Who gains from anti-Islam film?

ZIONISTS and right wing Christian evangelists exploit US freedom of
speech by fuelling sedition and hate between two great religions.

On the other hand, right wing religious elements are manipulating
Muslims' righteous indignation by turning lawful protests into demented
violence.

In the US, it is argued that inflammatory speech is protected in the first amendment.

Yet I know of eight people who were unjustly dragged through Los
Angeles federal courts for 15 years, accused of distributing less than
50 copies of a news magazine, which highlights the hypocrisy.

It seems the latest Islamophobic film Innocence of Muslims is part of
a trend designed to deceptively turn the memories of 9/11 into a
lasting conflict between Islam and the West, just one facet in a
calculated Zionist crusade to discredit anyone challenging Israel.

I wouldn't be surprised if it emerged producer Nakoula Basseley Nakoula was only a front for a pro-Israeli US group.

Nakoula, a bankrupt felon who spent 21 months in jail and was fined
more than half a million dollars, lacked financial resources to make the
movie. His earlier assertions that he collected millions from Jewish
donors provide possible clues about the real culprits.

The unsubstantiated pro-Israeli media spin, which suggested his
wife's family in Egypt financed the film, is most likely a diversionary
smokescreen to inflame sectarian rift in Egypt.

Israeli pundits have been trying to divide Egypt for 30 years. In
1982, the journal for the World Zionist Organisation Kivunim published a
treatise declaring that: "Breaking Egypt down territorially into
distinct geographical regions is the political aim of Israel."

In addition, the timing of the film's release was undoubtedly aimed to coincide with the US presidential election.

It couldn't be just a coincidence that four years ago Clarion Fund - a
shadowy American, pro-Israel, non-profit, tax-exempt organisation -
produced a similar anti-Muslim movie called Obsession: Radical Islam's
War Against the West.

As with this latest movie's timing, seven weeks before the 2008
presidential election, the fund, along with the Endowment for Middle
East Truth (EMET), spent more than $17 million to distribute 28m DVDs in
a major mail campaign and inserting copies in more than 100 newspapers
and magazines in swing voter states.

The fund was founded by two Israeli-Canadian brothers, movie producer
Raphael Shore and Rabbi Ephraim Shore of the Aish Hatorah, another
tax-exempt, pro-Israel organisation.

EMET's advisory board includes leading Islamophobic figures such as
Daniel Pipes, Frank Gaffney and former Israeli ambassador Yoram
Ettinger.

Sadly, while Christian evangelists were coalescing with Zionists to
mock the Prophet of Islam, Jewish settlers were vilifying Christ in his
native land.

Earlier this month, Jewish settlers, empowered financially by the
same tax-exempt US organisations, attempted to set fire to a Christian
church in Jerusalem after writing on the walls "Jesus is a monkey".

It is critical to recognise that this latest repulsive movie is part
of a growing Islamophobic industry, promoted and financed by one-issue,
tax-exempt Zionist organisations.

The West must deal firmly with this irrational yet measured phenomenon intended to incite and cause harm.

In the east, Muslims must be circumspect when rejecting hate-inspired
provocations. Violence only plays into the hands of those attempting to
divide followers of religions who share the same reverence for Jesus
and God.
